How to check which url the app is running?

How do you check what the URL of the page is?

You can quickly get the server's domain with document.domain or the URL with document.URL using the DOM module... That's one way anyway.

Strict

Extern

	Function getCurrentURL:String() = "function (){return document.URL;}"


Public



Function Main:Int()

	Print getCurrentURL()

	Return 0
	
End

This is a more platform-agnostic way to do it:

Strict
#If TARGET="html5" Then
Extern
Function getCurrentURL:String() = "function (){return document.URL;}"
Public
#Else
Function getCurrentURL:String()
  Return ""
End
#End

Function Main:Int()
  Print getCurrentURL()
  Return 0
End

Obviously this should be filled in with code for Flash.

function (){return ExternalInterface.call(~qwindow.location.href.toString~q);}

But this requires ExternalInterface to be imported.

--------------------

Edit: GetCurrentURL() added to Diddy r321 for HTML and Flash.

Extern
Function getCurrentURL:String() = "function (){return document.URL;}"
Public

That gives me an error: Missing return expression.

Strange... that works fine here. What version of Monkey are you using?

Try just copying and pasting impixi's example:

Strict

Extern
	Function getCurrentURL:String() = "function (){return document.URL;}"
Public

Function Main:Int()
	Print getCurrentURL()
	Return 0
End

Is that error in Monkey or in the browser? If it's a Monkey error, you may have forgotten the Return 0 statement in the Main function. Strict mode requires it.
